Like the Quick Find List, this block displays a search box on the page, but instead of searching through users, searches through Courses. Courses that match the search string either by shortname or fullname will be displayed, with a link through to the course page.

If Javascript is available, the block will "Find as you type", otherwise a button will be displayed to submit the search.

Please dont report bugs here

If you experience an error with the block, or would like to request a feature, please use the "Bug Tracker" link below.

Hi Thomas,
Just to check the permissions - there's a system level capability called quickcourselist:use which users will need to have to use the block, even if they have the block-level permission to view the instance of the block. If you want everyone to be able to use the block, I'd suggest giving the quickcourselist:use capability to the Authenticated User system role.

Hi Thomas
You just need to use the Moodle admin interface to assign the capability to the role, under Site Administration->Users->Permissions->Define Roles. If you need help using this interface, your best bet is to read the Documentation[1] and ask in the forums[2]

Although have had difficulty to show it to Roles other than Admin/Teacher, but did manage to get it worked reading Thomas's issue, Can this block be made visible to anyone (Like Most Other Blocks) so users don't have to take the step of going into Permissions and over-ride them?

Hi Mikhail,
Please post details of the error messages you see to the Bug Tracker (link is near the top of the page). I'm afraid I'm not actively developing this plugin at the moment, but I might be able to fix the problem if its small (or someone else might do it for you!).
